Quantity or quality?

[arjohnson]

Seen a video of a guy shooting a Wison Combat 45. Thousands of dollar gun. 5 shots hit 5 plates.
Stock Glock 45. 5-600 dollar gun. 5 shots hit 5 plates. Granted the 1911 will probably shoot a little tighter but
1 Wilson or 5 Glocks?

Since I*m no big fan of 1911*s that decision would be easy for me. Again quality doesn*t always mean you have to spend thousands to get it.

I’d easily take 1 Wilson over 5 Glocks. That’s like asking if you’d rather have 5 Civics or one C8.

Let's not forget Crusans my hero who has managed the art of Quality and Quantity. I'd take a tisas 1911 over 5 glocks, but I like 1911s. I would pay the money for a 1911 actually built by Bill Wilson but not for one of his minions built one. Mostly buy police trade glocks, sigs, gen 3 s&w as you can't beat the value. The firearm has to speak to me. Sometimes is a classic or a beauty and sometimes it's a no way this thing is going to last on the market weirdo thing. Example Zip22, Grendel P10, Remington R51. Life is long and opportunities come along. You only regret the opportunity not taken. Eat Ramin noodles and be happy.

The choices weren't quality, or an overpriced piece of shit.

What if we're talking 'bout a Mark 23?

I have cheap guns and I have expensive guns, but all of them are quality guns to me.

Neat gun, but there are many others just as capable for less than 1/3rd of the price. I wouldn't use one for SD/HD - too expensive if it's taken away as evidence, and it's large size and weight makes it impractical. Fine for an Operator operating operationally, but not so much for the average citizen. For me, it'd be a really expensive range toy. Nothing wrong with that, if that's your thing, but I could buy four or five quality guns for the price of one Mk 23.

Just think how many Jennings 22's you could get for the price of a Mark 23
Half a bushel?

Now many can you fire at a time?

On the other hand, someone on this forum is selling a Wilson for $1300 less than he paid for it....so seems like they're not great buys.
